円空の和歌 Waka poems by Enku

Translated by Grisha Dotzenko


Yesterday, today,
The snow has fallen down on
Kozasa mountain -
Perhaps a revelation
Of the Gods at the Year's end.


I end the year by
The little brook of heaven
On Oomine's great peak.
When I come again in spring,
I'll see the cherry blossoms.

At the cave Shoo no Iwaya 笙ノ巌
"Cave of the Reed Mouth-Organ"
Enku stayed here during the winter of 1673 / 1674 to practise austerities,
from September of 1673 to March 1674.

This cave is seen as the entrance to the paradise of Miroku Bosatsu.

円空の和歌は雄大だ。
白山を馬と見るだけではなくその馬にうちまたがる自身(?)までイメージをする。
そしてもうひとつ、遊びと笑いの精神が横溢している。白山という巨大な馬をヒヒーンと笑わせてしまう。


老いぬれば 残れる春の 花なるか 
世に荘厳(けだかけ)き 遊ふ文章(たまづさ)



with a haiku by Issa
